- Sky News' Stuart Ramsay reports from one of the most lawless places on earth - the Caribbean island of Haiti which is beset by violence, poverty and a cholera outbreak.
Our chief correspondent meets one gang leader - a former policeman who's the subject of UK sanctions.
As foreign nations talk of an intervention, the groups warn that this would lead to even worse bloodshed.

God help the guy who interrupted his interview
😅😅
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😭
😅...
I am Dominican 🇩🇴and my heart goes out for my Haitian brothers and sister. If it wasn’t for that gang leader those ppl will not be safe
😭🫂
He and other gang leaders came to an understanding. They told the public they can go back home. Had the same young members cleaning the streets and helping the residents
Haiti will change for the better… give it sometime. Good the corrupt president is out!
And look how different media are painting him. They want the oligarchs back in power.
My mom died I couldn’t even go to her funeral cause the country is so dangerous and everybody feared for my safe return smh the worst feeling ever I’ll never see her again
I'm sorry for your loss. :/ I didn't know it was so bad over there. I had coworkers from there that had way different memories but I guess that's because it's been like a decade since they've lived there.
Sorry for your lost
Sorry for that
Pole sana, sorry for the loss
Peace
RIP to the guy who Barbacue dealt with after finishing the interview
😂😂😂😂

President BBQ. Hes spicing things up
He got got
Only certain people could live in a situation like that and still smile
💯🫂
Definitely, it's not for the weak. It's real life. Vivre le Haiti.
My country 😭😭😭
It’s normally a smile from the people who create all the problems
@@ironhell813That's not real life. That's a failed state.
Props to the reporter for being there
@@rabrandconnections333what?
@@umbrellastudio7481They’re saying the reporter deserves respect for having the bravery to enter a hot warzone for an interview.
Full interview please 😢🙏🏼
Always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾
Is that another one?
@@jamesjameson4566no wtf?! 😅
@@jamesjameson4566look what he has on his chest, the symbol of Freemasonry on a chain!!!
omg I have hope that one day it will get better, my heart has been aching since the 90's for my brother's and sisters🙏🏾
God is calling All Nations to do a day of National Repentance 🙏
@@Brotherjoshuapichardo3263
It will take much More than One day of Repentance to reverse the damage and degradation they have made committed on all Humanity.
Nah !
Haiti is going through severe torture by evil SP entities. They want to crush Haitians to the ground.
It will🙏
@@Brotherjoshuapichardo3263 '
Sky, do some more in-depth research in order to find the root cause of the problem. Who are arming and financing those gangs? Who benefits from Haiti’s instability and chaos?. As a Haitian-American, I’m willing to meet and discuss the former and latter.
Exactly, they never will cause they don't care and work for the same people anyway
The Clintons and Sean Penn were instrumental in getting Haiti into its current state. The Clintons certainly benefit.
I was part of the US Army that helped restore Aristede to power. People keep referring to the "root causes." When my Army unit deployed, we helped get rid of Raul Cedras and replaced him with the man the majority of Haitians wanted - that being Aristede. We stayed for months and realized whatever the root causes were, we would never be able to fix most of them.
I’m a Blk American and it’s so easy to be called a gang member or leader. I see something wrong and idk the actual problem yet.. The government have have them starving living in horrible conditions and I see survival at any cost..They are all my people and I pray they comes to some common grounds Bc the actual WAR is BIGGER then any GANG they so say are called….Being UNITED is there biggest problem…
Corruption, that is what’s happening, the root is evil
If a movie had to be made about his life, Forest Whitaker can play a good role. I need to share the link of my other socials to make this viral 🤣.
Forest Whitaker 😅
King of Scotland 🏴
🤣🤣🤣🤣 soon as I saw Barbeque I thought of Forest Whitaker!
Facts 100%
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Have never seen a country in so much turmoil, oh my God help us
the USA was in charge of this country for 20 years kidnapped/abducted ARISTOLE take him and family to GHANA or KENYA let him go tell him don't set foot in HAITI or region again he tell world that
This guy could easily work as Forrest Whittaker's stunt double.
That's the homie Barbecue!!🤣🤣🤣
Since when is Forrest whittaker doing stunt's?
@@Hoosier_Daddy69 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
True 🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣
The thugged out haitian version of Forest Whitaker
My thoughts and prayers are with people in countries like this
@@MusclesNOTtattoos in a situation like that lots of people have to die for change and they're too scared to die 🙏
I'm sure your thoughts and prayers mean so much to them. I suppose virtue signaling is much easier than donating time or money.

Like a nice warm hug!
I think this is what gangster rappers imagine themselves be like when they rap those horrible lyrics. Humanity wasnt meant to live or go through this messy situation. Somebody save Haiti from this asap
Exactly
"Gangster rappers" have nothing to do with Haiti, besides its Jews that run that industry and create the lyrics.....
People who think society is better off with no govt, take a good look at this.
@@maineusaMax funny how the same people who dislike governments wont live in a country with no government 🤣🤣🤣
Jesus is THE Solution. But the meer mention of Him as an option triggers all the bad reactions.
Just feel so awful for the people living there.
Truly
I'm botn in the middle of the civil war in 96 and several years as past and I'm still hoping that theirs one family member still alive🙏🏿
Haiti 🇭🇹 is falling apart day by day 😭😭I love this country so much I don’t know why thou am from Africa
First free black country
Bro every time I go back home I'm chilling at Gelee Beach having the time of my life. Don't believe the hype
@@piowio4110looks like its not working out
Maintain Peace. Peace is SWEET. Peace, love and unity brings joy in our society. Together We Stand
That’s why America needs to stand strong. I love my Haitian friends and coworkers!
BBQ's area is actually cleaner than the rest of the city.
And everyone has on nice clothes.
That's not saying much lol
@@the-based-jew6872 it's saying a lot
@@ayiti1891 I would be a soilder for barbeque and try to take over the territories. He actually has his side clean
@@JustinWatts-yz9ik yeap.. it's no just for show. He's really about that life
Our gang leaders in the USA have badges and some call themselves politicians
It's the same people ova there, its called the CIA
The mayor of Baltimore springs to mind
They call themselves domestic terrorists, ex cop, ex military, why there is so much corruption , after super sandy leveled the Keys, it all mushroomed and took over north of the keys and spread like wildfire..haiti was in decline regardless of its leadership, these gangs got away with assassination of the president there and now its a full takeover by gang(s).. they dont like Americans
And church pastors too
The police is the only thing keeping America a civilized country
I hope that Haiti will overcome this 🙏
3:42 shows the reality of growing up here.. they look absolutely dejected & depressed… this is sad
Well done!
With Rival gang leaders Grill & Rotisserie controlling large areas, I just hope BBQ can stand the heat.
Hopefully he doesn’t get shish kebabed
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Stop it🤣
lol
😈
That guy Barbeque is a unique personality...
He's sweet and sour Barbecue
my 94 year old mother in law was here in the USA in a nursing home and she signed he self out and went back to here. she stays inside her compound but her home does not look anything like this. it is a nicer home than my home in Long Island and she has a full time live-in maid and a cook that looks after her 24 hours.She pays them out of her pension and SS
@@michaelgardiner6629 🤦♂️🤡
Good for her, she loves her country and shes already old
Haiti needs a president like in el salvador who can sort out the terrorising gangs.
The salvadorian president stopped it before something like this could happen. The criminals in haiti are in total control now unfortunatly. Haiti needs an intervention from the outside.
True, but I'm afraid it's too late for that. Haiti was already drowned in corruption, and now it progressed into total lawlessness and chaos.
Because that was successful.
Bukele just offered to.intervene in Haiti..💯
Thoughts and prayers are with the suffering. Haiti may need a temporary intervention...unfortunately.
Acting gentle with the journalist but shouting to his own boys during interviews 😂😂😂
He's a bully that rules through fear/intimidation.
He'll be dead before the summer mark my words.
@@Hoosier_Daddy69 that's every government
Showboating
Showing off his sense of authority but really it made him look silly.
@ 3:22 Did anyone acknowledge the little girl who ran and hugged the man and said 'barbecue'.
No one will care about it , they are only looking for violence or bag things to make barbecue looks like an evil man
Yeah that's his hood he's the boss he's respected he's a murderer too lol they fear him
They love him. He'll be the next president
My wife is from Haiti, most of her family lives in the u.s. but they have 11 family members currently at the u.s. boarder right now. The stories I hear are crazy, but normal to her. Really her whole family talks about these desperate situations like there nothing ( there were attempts on her mothers life)... It's weird
Brother, some parts of the world are in such bad situations since the last decade. My parents are from west Africa. Very poor place, many places currently are dealing with Muslim extremist groups as well. A man was dismembered infront of his son, because he would refuse to deny Christ.
@@jesusisking3722 😔😔😔
prayers for your family
I am sure she laughs when us American are complaining about how hard life is in America
@@Wisdom24-7 shes been here 12 years now and is a citizen. She complains about fast food places messing up her orders just like the rest of us. 😆
Even BBQ seems to have lost weight
Ironic
I hope our people will be safe!
I remember Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 Defense force was in Haiti 🇭🇹 some years back.
Lol Trinidad need them in Trinidad. It’s almost the same
@@gazadan6623 Trinidad and Tobago far away from being a Haiti 🇭🇹.
Trinidad will always be in my heart. They flew their flag halfway, on the day of President Moises funeral! I will never forget!
🇹🇹
Just today this man coordinated an assault on two of the nation's prisons, freeing over 4000 inmates. Bodies left in the streets.
Strategic move to gather loyal ranks. The gangs need to form alliances if they are to form a country.
@@sunfish4095America won’t let a thug and a future dictator Run Haiti his time is ticking, And his eyes are so evil a walking demonic force
He have studied SOG history

Look how orderly and clean it is in his castle. This is the kind of man Haiti needs to restore order...
That part
Excellent journalism 👍🏼
Jimmy warning his interviewer that an outside force entering his country would be a bad idea. Then his Nike top emblazoned with the message taunts 'JUST DO IT' !!😂😂😂
This country can never get a break. I pray Jesus saves them.

They need brains, not resources.
Resources will eventually be stolen by the corrupt government
😊
Easy for any army to take control of the situation. It's difficult to maintain said order where everyone is corrupt
He Respects people
I wonder how many bodies he's got under his belt.
These people would fit in very well in Detroit on Chicago!!!
Praying for country
The only thing sadder than this story is the reporters over emphatic use of adjectives to describe how bad it is----Unfortunately things will only get worse in Haiti!
The American, English, French and Canadians knows how to solve Haiti s problems is not to send soldiers. But they need to let us rebuild our army, expand our Agriculture change our Constitution all those things they prevented our late president Jovenel from doing.
None of that would matter lol.
@@mjanny6330 lol
Damn I always thought these people where very peaceful!!! I’m appalled of what’s going on. I had no idea.
Its the most dangerous country in the world and it's never been a peaceful place
@@bluethunder5694 wow!!! I actually had no idea how bad it was. It’s very disturbing
Your mistaking Haiti for Jamaica or any other Caribbean country.
@@bluethunder5694 No it's not. By far.
Trust me! Haitians are peaceful people. Political system has given power & control to the bad Apples.
My guy said “i will deal with u later” 😂 judging by the guys following him with rifles i don’t think its a empty threat.
Looks like Chicago, and Baltimore, to me
Seems like a man taking care of his community! So terrible that first free nation of black people have to endure this!!
It's by design. France had it in for them ever since they freed themselves.
Why doesn't anyone speak of successful longterm embargoes and crippling debt when talking about Haiti falling apart?
Because that has nothing to do with their behaviour....raping, kidnapping, burning and killing each other. Stop looking for BLAME and focus on solutions
I like it when u likened the frontline zone to that off Alleppo
Its serious down there😢
But life seems to just go on. The human capacity to adapt to situations is quite remarkable.
I hope that they find peace someday. Corruption is a true destroyer of societies.

Ask yourself who's giving them guns? They barely have shoes and yet they have m4 ar15 ak47 and so on.
Jesus
Haitians in the USA smuggle weapons into Haiti.
Uncle Sam, no need to be a genius to figure it out. All those gangs/cartels in Latin America/Carribean source their guns form the US.
@@redademe 💯
America 🇺🇸
China?
A seething mass of desperate people, that's the right way to describe it. They need some help. I'm an American and I need help myself, my family needs help, but when I look at countries like Haiti I think "Lord forget about me, help who needs help. If I fall into that category than fine, if not, fine... help who needs it."
What a country!!!
This journalist is incredibly brave
The US military also called Haitian resistance bandits when they invaded and occupied Haiti from 1915-1934
Anyone notice his freemason pendant? Wow........
Ikr
Respect
i assume hes called Barbecue because he lights people on fire.
No, it's actually just because he really likes ribs
No.. his mom sold fried food in the neighborhood. There were a lot of Jimmy. They all got nicknames. He was Barbecue bc of his mother
I have heard some funny gang leader names before but this one is a really good one.
His real name it’s been reported is jean luis st pierre
Grilled to death by enemy molotov😂
It's no longer Jimmy Barbecue, it's vitel'homme who had dealt with the current government and the government does not follow the deal they had in place, as a Haitian I'm worried that the situation will become much worse, the main problem is a dysfunctional government with a man in charge who follows his bosses (international community).
Why those peoples talk about BBQ he is gang ? I never hear about him kidnapped anyone or killed police in Haiti . And they never talk about ti lapli or lanmo san jou ot vitelhomme etc ...
That's what it's all about... Western countries want their puppet president to run Haiti and barbeque and having it..
Stop blaming "the international community" for the failings of a group of people lol.
Was barbecue wearing a masonic square and compass around his neck? 😢
Mr. Barbecue sounds like a legit politician to me.
Haiti has such rich culture. Its sad to see where it is today.
blacks😂

So sad
Gotta love a bit of Barbecue. What a ledge!
Nike “just do it “ 😂😂😂
91 gangs, my goodness 😢
Gangland
Bruh the thumbnail pic had me thinking 'is it Forrest making another movie about Amin?'
Respectful to all gangs worldwide
I saw a crazy gang torture video from Haiti where the poor victim had a hot rod inserted in his backside and his head was set on fire. They are pretty vicious
where are they getting the guns and ammunition?
The person who killed the Haitian President got life in prison.
If he were still alive, I don't think it would be this bad.
This is so sad.
Police cant find him but sky news can 😂😂😂
Peace ✌🏽
Imagine country being ruled by gangsters. Although this can be solved, it will take about decades
Which ga gangsters the us government?
Or warlords,but thats Afghanistan before the taliban so not hard to imagine.
Uk is being run by gangsters with tories and right wing gangsters
Pretty awful history.
In a roundabout way, events in Haiti influenced the slave related strife in the US.
We're ruled by bandits with ties! They are as malicious as it is gangsters!
This guy BBQ must be heavily respected
He makes the best pulled pork I heard
He's the only guy grilling
His chicken wings are 🔥
😂
BBQ used to be a police chief
was he burned? omg this is crazy and so sad! prayer too all!@
Why every cable news only talking about barbecue these thousand of them I believe
Barbecue is a good guy! It’s time to support him financially and clean Port-au-Prince from gangs and make Haiti a new Carribean travel destination!
I will NEVER take anybody with the name BBQ seriously😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol check out the legend of how he got the name and that’ll change quickly.
It's cause he burned people alive😂
Welcome to Haiti 🇭🇹. Airplane 🛬 made collision 💥 with a motorcycle 🏍. Everything that's sound impossible in your country is 100% possible in mine 🤣🤣🤣
I thought that was Noel Clark 😂😂😂
Mw kriye pou Jimmy San li pa fanmim
Zanmim it’s sad 😞
I’m getting a feeling the term “gang” associated with US crime is not the same as “gang” here
Why those people never show Haitian beauty like beaches, people, houses, food, nice land, beautiful women, good looking men, there’s more about Haiti then Gangs!
The gangs are not at the beautiful beach..
Poor hati it been in a huge internal struglle 😢😢😢😢 for year after year prays things will chamge in 2024
The translation is bad. I know y’all trying to make him looks like the devil, but I cannot stand a bad translation. He wasn’t been rude
